Differential Effects of the Oncogenic BRAF Inhibitor PLX4032 (Vemurafenib) and its Progenitor PLX4720 on ABCB1 Function [PDF]
PURPOSE: The clinically approved oncogenic BRAF inhibitor PLX4032 (vemurafenib) was shown to be a substrate of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABCB1. Here, we compared PLX4032 and its structurally closely related precursor compound PLX4720 for

ABCB1 polymorphism in clopidogrel-treated Montenegrin patients
Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet drug that displays significant interindividual variability in treatment response. Its bioavailability depends on the function of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), which is coded by a highly polymorphic ABCB1 gene.

Dynamic induction of drug resistance through a stress-responsive enhancer in acute myeloid leukemia
The drug efflux pump ABCB1 (ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 1) confers chemotherapy resistance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We recently identified an ABCB1 enhancer that is activated in response to a range of cellular stressors, including ...
